Gov. Gavin Newsom's campaign donor says his Panera Bread restaurants will follow new minimum wage law after backlash
“California’s statewide minimum wage is $16 per hour. Newsom signed a law last year that says fast food restaurants that are part of a chain with at least 60 locations nationally must pay their workers at least $20 per hour beginning April 1. But the law does not apply to restaurants that have their own bakeries to make and sell bread as a stand-alone menu item.”
Is there a defendable explanation as to why making your own bread means minimum wage laws cannot be applied to businesses that otherwise meet these requirements?
The explanation:
Flynn has been a generous donor to Newsom’s political campaigns, including contributing $100,000 to fight a failed recall effort against the governor. Bloomberg reported that the two men attended the same high school. Flynn also acquired a resort managed by Newsom’s hospitality business in 2014, but terminated the management contract about a year after the purchase, according to the news outlet.
Gov. Gavin Newsom's Office called a Bloomberg News story that alleged he exempted bakeries from the state's fast food wage law to benefit a political donor who owns Panera Bread locations "absurd" and said the restaurant is not exempted from the policy.
Both sides are bad.
They’re just looking out for different rich people.
Just saying, I never mentioned libertarians.
Ranked-choice voting would be nice, but democrats don’t support it because they’re bad people.

Tell me, which states have ranked choice voting and which states are run by the “bad people”?
